Default Drag Specialties "Spoon Style" Seat

Anyone put this seat on their Dyna? Digging the look and considering picking one up for my '09 Bob. Just curious about fit, finish and comfort if anyone has had any experience with this seat.

Wow guess not. Funny, all the seats I like, noone has, guess it will make my bike really unique if I get them (posted several times for pics/opinions on Lepera King Cobra seat previously, never got one reply, I guess this post will be no different)....

I thought I'd post in your thread to make you feel better.

I don't know about the fit or comfort but I personally don't like the look of that seat at all.

I am touched by your sentiment and appreciate your opinion. Now I really want to get this seat :-)

I was thinking the same thing when I looked at it. Don't care for the look on the bike, but I'm not the one buying it. Personally, I don't ask for peoples opinions on what I buy. If I like it, I buy it. You know what opinions are like!!

Exactly my point and the reason why I am not asking for opinions which I do not care about in this case, just if anyone bought the seat and if it is comfortable in general or made well.

I think it looks pretty cool.... BUT, it looks as if it offers no back support. You hit the throttle and your sent sliding back. Not a good feeling. My last seat had that same exact feeling. Every time on hard acceleration, I'd go sliding back. It SUCKED. But hey, if you like it, thats all that matters man. Just go for it!

If you like it that's all that matters. It looks a little thin for my old butt. I like thick ones with some back support like this one I just bought.

Important part of comfort for any saddle is that the pan is flat and does not cause hotspots. Personally I would get the lepera cobra over that seat. They have great seat pans. Also the lepera probably has a gel option for additional comfort.

I think that seat is damn cool. It's got a old school look to it.
